To read Burgess Meredith's thoughts on his friend Franchot, click on this earlier post.
I'm not sure of the particular war drama this non-Franchot fan was referring to, but Franchot starred in quite a few excellent war films: Today We Live (1933); The World Moves On (1934); The Lives of a Bengal Lancer (1935); Suzy (1936); They Gave Him a Gun (1937); Three Comrades (1938); The Wife Takes a Flyer (1942); Five Graves to Cairo (1943); Pilot No. 5 (1943); The Hour Before the Dawn (1944).
According to the naysayer in this column, I guess there ought to be more than one dreamer peddling Coca Cola in the North Pole, eh? ;)
